hahah so can we do away with the term "Big 4" now? There is a Big 2, a mid-3 and the rest

Big 2: WP and A&G

The rest

Depends.

If you’re connections god and can bring in clients then first to equity (and increasing equity) best.

If you are true blue sinkie only can work and cannot do business then go wherever pays you the most salary.
